University Press of Kansas 2006 186 S. Ill. Includes bibliographical references (p. 151-175) and index The story of Yellowstone Park and its wildlife, particularly bears, is intrinsically intertwined with tourists. Since the park's inception, people have traveled there to view Old Faithful and see a bear. When national parks were new, feeding grizzly and black bears was part of the charm. But once roadside feedings were de rigueur for tourists, the exchanges turned out to be detrimental to both wildlife and humans. The animals became dependent on a foreign, unhealthy food source, and people were getting mauled. Over the course of her clarifying history, Biel writes with conviction about the influence of various park superintendents, bear-management strategies, and changing ecopolitical influences, particularly the economic impact of the tourist trade. Years of training the public to regard bears as neither cute nor cuddly but as wild animals magnificent in their own right and deserving respect appear to have improved the welfare of wildlife in the park. Yet each generation must be educated anew, and Biel's book is a valuable contribution to that effort. --Pamela Crossland Copyright 2006 Booklist Geschichte idszbz Bär (DE-588)4194161-5 gnd Fütterung (DE-588)4018837-1 gnd Bears Effect of human beings on Yellowstone National Park History Bears Effect of human beings on Yellowstone National Park History Captive wild animals Feeding and feeds Yellowstone National Park History Bären (Familie) idszbz Mensch idszbz Beers Effect of human beings on Yellowstone National Park Beers Feeding and feeds Yellowstone National Park Captive wild animals Feeding and feeds Yellowstone National Park Yellowstone National Park (DE-588)4119196-1 gnd Yellowstone National Park idszbz USA idszbz Table of contents only http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip061/2005026972.html zbzmon200604f kobe zbzswk200606b wart idszbz Z2 ZB599 Z01 IDSBB 100 1- Wondrak Biel Alice IDSBB 856 -- Table of contents only http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip061/2005026972.html NEBIS 100 1- Wondrak Biel Alice BK020000 XK020000 XK020000 NEBIS Z01 Z01 02 HT 344 IDSBB B410 B410 410HF HIS Wc 3989 NELB4921406
